from the article:
"So this is where it gets dangerous. If I am correct in my logic above they might realize that they have exhausted their conventional options. This means the playbook shifts to the unconventional.

If they cannot get their way via conventional means I believe they have no problem whatsoever in wiping out a vast percentage of the world’s population to get their way"
